Abstract
Illinois resides within a developed nation, yet it still retains places that do not have access to clean, usable water. Often, this problem goes unseen as citizens outside those areas believe all are so lucky to have this necessary commodity. Even so, the actions from these citizens, whether tacitly or explicitly, negatively impacts the decreasing abundance of clean water that Illinois has access to. Our group will be sending a letter to several state legislators of Illinois that govern areas with historically or current lack of clean water. We hope this will spur them to action and move forward on infrastructure and legislation that will allow all citizens of Illinois easy access to clean water.
